A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, tapered terminals. The serifs are delicate and largely wedge-like, with a calligraphic feel in the joins and curves. Italic construction is evident throughout with flowing entry/exit strokes, a lively baseline rhythm, and compact, slightly variable character widths. Uppercase forms appear poised and sculpted, while the lowercase shows crisp hairlines, narrow apertures, and elegant, sweeping descenders.
Well suited to editorial headlines, fashion and lifestyle layouts, and elegant brand expressions where contrast and sophistication are desired. It can also work effectively for pull quotes, titling, and formal invitations when given enough size and breathing room to preserve the hairlines.
The overall tone is sophisticated and dramatic, evoking luxury publishing and classic print typography. Its crisp hairlines and energetic slant create a sense of motion and refinement, lending a polished, editorial voice.
Designed to deliver a classic italic serif voice with heightened contrast and a contemporary, fashion-forward sparkle. The intention appears focused on expressive display typography that still retains traditional serif structure and readability in short passages.
In the sample text, the thin strokes become very fine at larger sizes, emphasizing a sparkling texture and strong diagonal flow. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with slender links and rounded bowls that match the text’s graceful rhythm.
